lsnote is a modern replacement for the venerable ls command. It augments directory listings with persistent file notes, emoji icons, Git status indicators, and coloured column headers.
The tool is written in Rust and is designed to provide a more informative view of files and directories without requiring Nerd Fonts. Notes can be attached to files or directories and displayed inline alongside regular listing information.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Detailed directory listings with permissions, ownership, size, date, and name columns.
- Persistent notes for files and directories.
- Emoji icons for visual file-type recognition.
- Git status indicators for modified, staged, and untracked files.
- Tree view for exploring nested directories.
- Human-readable file sizes.
- Copy directory listings to the clipboard.
- No Nerd Font requirement.
